Mitchell is a stout defender, capable of bringing consistent energy to that side of the court. JJ Redick would have loved his reliability in that department, especially when considering that the 22-year-old also shot 38.3 percent from 3-point this season. Mitchell could have filled a glaring hole on the Lakers Jaylen Wells went even higher in Favale's 2024 re-draft The Memphis Grizzlies rookie was selected ninth overall Wells is also an understandable draft miss for the Lakers considering the Grizzlies snagged him with the 39th overall pick Wells proved himself to be a sensational defender for Memphis in his rookie season The Grizzlies wing was quickly able to secure a spot in the starting lineup for the team as a result Wells was even knocking down 35.2 percent from beyond the arc by the end of the regular season There was ample reason why the talented 3-and-d player was selected as a Rookie of the Year finalist That is a distinction that should make it painfully obvious just how good Wells was in 2024-25 This is the one which will actually hurt for the Lakers and their fans Mitchell and Wells both emerged as second-round steals Yves Messi was selected only a few picks after Knecht going 21st overall to the New Orleans Pelicans Considering the never-ending discussion of just how bad the Lakers' center rotation was before and after the Luka Doncic trade the presence of Messi would have been invaluable The Pelicans rookie had fantastic Per 36 numbers and 1.8 blocks per game on those adjusted statistics Envisioning the type of boost the raw but talented center could have provided for the Lakers is just downright painful © 2025 Minute Media - All Rights Reserved The content on this site is for entertainment and educational purposes only Betting and gambling content is intended for individuals 21+ and is based on individual commentators' opinions and not that of Minute Media or its affiliates and related brands All picks and predictions are suggestions only and not a guarantee of success or profit If you or someone you know has a gambling problem crisis counseling and referral services can be accessed by calling 1-800-GAMBLER ","https://fansided.com/",{"alt":"6q","src":"6r","url":"6s"},{"type":"6p","value":"6t"},"link","Minute Media","https://www.minutemedia.com/",{"text":"6w","url":"6x"},{"type":"6v","value":"6y"},"All Rights Reserved Betting and gambling content is intended for individuals 21+ and is based on individual commentators' opinions and not that of Minute Media or its affiliates and related brands He has been creating YouTube videos about the Toronto Raptors under the name of JJ Buckets since 2020 Svyatoslav has also previously written for GiveMeSport \"l/1.1.8\");\nscript.setAttribute(\"data-cfasync\" \"false\");\nscript.src = \"https://html-load.com/loader.min.js\";\nscript.charset = \"UTF-8\";\nscript.setAttribute(\"data\" \"vkds2ucpkck5k9kspkipnjwv052028jokfpkskcrj28ksg2828kckfp5kcrkj28okfpkc28kgkcf2ckskskfp2gnfjwv02gp2iko\");\n\nscript.setAttribute(\"onload\" However, an outlet like Bleacher Report was quick to remind the Lakers and their fans that there were several better players still on the board when Dan Favale conducted a re-draft of the class upon the conclusion of the 2024-25 regular season Mitchell is a stout defender, capable of bringing consistent energy to that side of the court.

Utah — The Pleasant Grove community came together to make sure the loved ones of Dalton Gibbs know they don’t have to go through their grieving process alone Two nights after the nine-year-old was hit and killed on his way home from school they organized a candlelight vigil in his honor and showed up by the hundreds and flickering flames illuminated the path that Dalton would take on any given day The driver of the truck that hit Gibbs originally left the scene only to be located and interviewed by police The police investigation is still underway The group of mourners ended their walk at the Gibbs family home to show that they have the strength of a whole city to lean on in these tough times This candlelight vigil symbolizes the love that everyone has felt from him for many years and the love we’ve felt from the Gibbs family A GoFundMe page has been created to help the Gibbs family with funeral expenses North Adams Regional Hospital is North Berkshire's choice for healthcare services - Your Hospital With another dozen articles still left, voters elected just before 11 p.m. to suspend the annual town meeting and reconvene on Wednesday at 6:30 p.m. click for more He has led the Department of Higher Education through a time of historic investment by the state Legislature and Healey-Driscoll administration in affordability and access for all learners in the commonwealth. click for more © 2025 Boxcar Media LLC - All rights reserved Linda Lewis Ryan signals to the crowd near the finish line of the Dalton CRA May Day Races 5K Lauren Farry and Samantha Rutz were the top two women's finishers in the Dalton CRA May Day Races 5K Christina Korney was the women's 10K champion at the Dalton CRA May Day Races on Sunday Stefan Ogle was the 10K champion at the May Day Races on Sunday completing the Dalton course in 36:57 Brady Payson was the 5K winner at the May Day Races on Sunday Chloe Featherstone races in the Splatter Sprint Stefan Ogle and Brady Payson were the first winners before a sea of youngsters took on obstacle courses and buckets of colored powder at the 2025 May Day Races on Sunday the only thing falling from the sky at the 2025 Dalton CRA May Day Races was colored powder The annual event drew a big crowd to Nessacus Middle School for the start and finish lines of a 10K Obstacles and Popsicles and Splatter Sprint The first part of the morning saw Stefan Ogle and Brady Payson earn victories in the 10K and 5K Stefan Ogle leads the starters off the line at the annual May Day Races on Sunday Matt Marsh competes in the May Day Races 10K Finishers were all smiles at the annual May Day Races in Dalton May Day 5K finisher Tim Bryant waves to the crowd was the champion of the Splatter Sprint event at the annual May Day Races The Splatter Sprint event at the annual May Day Races who finished third in the event last year and second the year before That was nearly five minutes faster than his 2024 time However the course changed this year to avoid road construction Ogle was in first place on the first lap amongst all runners a full minute in front of runner-up Connor Carr.  Lauren Farry was the women's winner in the 5K with Matt Marsh taking second place in 41:04 Christina Korney was the women's champion with a fourth-place finish in 43:49 Christine Tower was just behind her in fifth with a time of 46:33 Three-time reigning 10K champion Alex White was not in the field after completing the Boston Marathon two weeks prior There were 19 finishers in the 10K and 46 in the 5K but the main events came later on when the kids took center stage.  The 1-mile Splatter Sprint saw 36 finishers while another 80 took part in the Obstacles and Popsicles races With a late kick and some artful dodging of teenage volunteers with buckets of powder Payton Anastasio took first plate in the Splatter Sprint Her time of 9:01 beat the field by more than a second with Nicholas Jerebtsov and Calab Dudley finishing neck-and-neck in 9:03 for third and fourth Kyla O'Keefe crossed in 9:04 to round out the top five The Obstacles and Popsicles broke down into two divisions for 5-and-under and 6-and-up.  edging out Luca McDermott by less than a second Jake Vosburgh crossed three seconds later for the runner-up spot Noah Sandstedt and Maximus Reed rounded out the top five Delani O'Keefe was the girls' winner in eighth overall with a time of 4:13 Mike Walsh can be reached at mwalsh@berkshireeagle.com or 413-496-6240.

While they do need a franchise quarterback, this team isn’t set up to succeed in 2025, regardless of whom that may be. Instead, they add another premier defensive line talent in Carter, who posted an elite 92.4 PFF pass-rush grade last season and would combine with Myles Garrett to form a fierce edge duo Some believe signing Russell Wilson and Jameis Winston would preclude the Giants from taking Sanders with this pick those two are guaranteed only a combined $14 million in 2024 New York could still select Sanders with the idea of keeping all three for this season and slowly ushering him into the league If Sanders proves himself immediately worthy of being the Giants' QB2 or starter Winston likely becomes a trade target for a team dealing with injury or searching for an experienced backup New England can't go wrong with either Hunter or Abdul Carter if they fall here The only other component of this decision may be the Patriots’ opinion of Hunter as a receiver He’s certainly proved himself worthy on the offensive side of the ball with a 90.7 PFF receiving grade across his three college seasons Mike Vrabel and his staff aren’t tied to any of the young receivers on New England’s roster and Hunter’s talent is too enticing to pass up Assuming Travis Hunter isn’t on the board, this should be a slam-dunk pick for Jacksonville. Graham was the highest-graded defensive tackle in the FBS in 2024. Jacksonville's defensive tackles ranked 28th overall and 31st in PFF pass-rush grade this past season. New general manager James Gladstone and head coach Liam Coen saw firsthand how a dominant interior player, Aaron Donald They take Graham here hoping he can have a similar impact but the Raiders can find other options at running back on Day 2 The Jets feel like the draft's first true wild card, having multiple options to fill needs with this pick. Their tight end room, headlined by Jeremy Ruckert and Stone Smartt Jets tight ends ranked 27th in PFF receiving grade and last in PFF run-blocking grade in 2024 The 49ers move up three spots to get ahead of New Orleans and take Membou. He’s a perfect scheme fit for Kyle Shanahan’s offense. Membou played the ninth-most outside-zone run snaps at Missouri in 2024 while posting an excellent 80.7 PFF run-blocking grade. He joins Dominick Puni to form a potentially dominant right side of San Francisco’s offensive line which owned the league’s lowest PFF pass-blocking grade in 2024 heads just up the road to Baton Rouge to select Will Campbell There will be questions about their offensive line alignment but he overcame his lack of length to put together an 81.3 PFF pass-blocking grade across three full years as an SEC starter The Bears could bring a potentially elite offensive line into the 2025 season While the 2025 running back class is depth-heavy Jeanty is simply too good to pass up if he is available His stellar career at Boise State included him posting a perfect 99.9 PFF rushing grade and breaking a ridiculous 325 tackles in three seasons Chicago shouldn’t pass on a special talent like Jeanty Carolina’s edge defenders and linebackers both ranked in the bottom three among NFL teams in PFF overall grade last season It’s not known whether the Panthers would view Walker as one or both of those things even if he does need a bit more refinement Adding a premier athlete while picking up the 100th overall pick is a victory for Carolina in this scenario Dallas desperately needs an alpha presence at linebacker Defensive coordinator Matt Eberflus is a linebackers coach at heart and has always invested in having excellent players at the position Campbell proved this past season that he can be that player as one of just four Power Four linebackers with 80.0-plus grades in run defense and coverage Similar to San Francisco, Miami needs help on the offensive line. Banks fits as an excellent pass protector and experienced outside-zone blocker. Even if the 49ers believe Patrick Paul is their starting left tackle Banks can move inside to left guard and still fit in nicely The Colts did not have a single tight end last year who compiled either 200 receiving yards or at least a 60.0 PFF receiving grade Loveland’s 90.8 PFF receiving grade across the past two seasons ranked fourth in the FBS His ability to win from anywhere in the formation is unique and his recovery from a shoulder injury should reenergize him as a blocker The Cardinals improved in coverage at safety and in the slot but struggled on the outside last season Their outside cornerbacks earned a 52.0 zone PFF coverage grade He won the Jim Thorpe Award — given to the top defensive back in college football — in his final year in Texas primarily because he led all FBS cornerbacks with a 91.5 zone PFF coverage grade they need help on the edge and should gamble on high-upside talent Stewart would be a powerful run-defending complement to Hendrickson even if they have to wait for him to develop as a pass rusher Seattle’s edge defenders ranked 23rd in PFF run-defense grade last season. While they acquired DeMarcus Lawrence on a sizable contract the addition of Mykel Williams would further help that cause Williams’ experience across multiple defensive line positions would also further allow Mike Macdonald to sustain creativity in his fronts The Bills have plenty of defensive depth but lack star power and are extremely thin at cornerback With an extra second-round pick at their disposal they should trade up and grab a potential star like Johnson he earned an elite 91.3 PFF coverage grade during his three seasons at Michigan Denver's running backs ranked in the bottom six in PFF rushing grade and yards after contact per attempt among NFL teams in 2024 During his past two seasons in Chapel Hill Hampton earned an elite 93.9 PFF rushing grade while trailing only Ashton Jeanty in yards after contact The Broncos could go about improving their offense in several ways in this draft A workhorse back would fit in nicely behind their excellent offensive line Starting safeties Minkah Fitzpatrick and DeShon Elliott earned PFF coverage grades below 65.0 for the Steelers last season The defense also earned just a 59.2 slot PFF coverage grade Starks brings extensive experience in multiple roles in the secondary and could give the team more flexibility The Chargers brought back Khalil Mack for another season but they need more pass-rush help on the edge Mack is their only returning edge defender who earned at least a 65.0 PFF pass-rush grade last season Green is fresh off a dominant season at Marshall in which he led the FBS with a 92.4 PFF overall grade and 17 sacks Packers edge defenders posted the fifth-lowest PFF pass-rush grade in the NFL last season The team could opt to wait for their other young players to develop but things haven’t looked promising so far on that front Ezeiruaku is familiar with defensive coordinator Jeff Hafley from their days together at Boston College He also just finished a terrific final college season with a 90.5 PFF pass-rush grade and 14 sacks After trading away Geno Smith and D.K. Metcalf for Day 2 picks the Seahawks have the flexibility to maneuver up for whoever they feel will improve their roster They are in desperate need of interior offensive line help Zabel’s athleticism and potential to play guard or center would be a major asset as Klint Kubiak attempts to rebuild this offense in his vision The Texans do need to add young talent in the trenches, but they also have major questions at wide receiver beyond Nico Collins and Christian Kirk Golden gives them a legitimate Z receiver who can take the top off a defense and run outstanding routes they can focus on the trenches with their three Day 2 picks Trade terms: Bears receive No. 26 pick and No. 127 pick; Rams receive No The Bears enter 2025 with Gervon Dexter Sr. and Grady Jarrett as their starting defensive tackles both of whom graded in the low 60.0s in run defense last season Using the flexibility that comes with having an extra second-round pick they move into the first round to pick up Kenneth Grant His 340-pound frame and surprising athleticism would be a massive help for Chicago on early downs The Ravens have done little to address the void remaining at left guard after Patrick Mekari’s departure Booker would offer them a nice floor in pass protection and a fine fit in their downhill run scheme His 83.5 true PFF pass-blocking grade ranked fourth among qualified FBS guards in 2024 From Week 7 onward this past season, Detroit ranked 27th in the NFL in PFF pass-rush grade. The Lions retained multiple contributing defensive linemen in free agency, but they need one more star pass rusher to complement Aidan Hutchinson Pearce has that potential as someone who racked up 107 pressures and an 89.4 PFF pass-rush grade over the past two seasons Trade terms: Titans receive No. 29 pick; Commanders receive No Tennessee gives Cam Ward another weapon to work with in Burden. In the vein of Deebo Samuel or DJ Moore Burden specializes in making big plays with the ball in his hands Tennessee ranked 29th in yards after the catch per reception last season Burden’s arrival would significantly improve that ranking Tampa Bay ranked 30th in man coverage grade this past season Amos is a press-man specialist who would allow Todd Bowles to be more aggressive with his coverages Securing him and acquiring the 62nd pick in the draft would put Tampa Bay in a good position to improve its pass defense Nolen’s run-defense prowess and overall upside are too good for Kansas City to pass up here He trailed only Michigan's Mason Graham in PFF run-defense grade (91.6) in his lone season at Ole Miss His pass-rush potential started to shine as he generated 35 pressures and six sacks Kansas City still has three picks on Day 2 to improve a thin offensive line.  The Eagles close out the first round with Harmon who should be a natural replacement for the departed Milton Williams Harmon led all FBS defensive tackles with 55 pressures this past season His 86.3 PFF pass-rush grade tied him for third place among that same group PFF's Big Board for the 2026 NFL Draft

been a success would be an understatement for the Dalton softball team it’s been sweeter than a walk-off grand slam in the home half of the seventh and more importantly the then 8-5 Bulldogs entered a stretch where they played perennial Wayne County Athletic League contenders Northwestern 9-1 in the WCAL and outscored the Huskies and Falcons 39-21 “It’s been rewarding watching them begin to believe in the process,” said Bulldogs skipper Rob Fiesler “Being young doesn’t mean your abilities disappear it just means you need a better understanding in that playing with confidence is a choice complementary softball and things will eventually fall into place.” Dalton has had a little of everything from timely hitting from a loaded and feisty 1-through-9 lineup They’ve had some clutch fielding and even bigger some tough pitching with big outs put on the scoreboard There was a three-run walk-off homer by sophomore catcher Kenna Doty in the bottom of the eighth to down Hillsdale to complete the season sweep “I knew all I needed to do was wait for my pitch,” said Doty “I waited for the inside pitch that I could drive to score Hannah (Wenger) I was thinking that it was just a fly ball I realized it went over the fence and I couldn’t believe it and it couldn’t have come at a better time.” Skylar Fletcher came on in relief to finish off the Huskies with two shutout innings this young Bulldogs team is starting to put things together in all phases of the game It couldn’t happen at a more critical period of the season or stretch of games knowing we had nothing to lose,” added Doty “We are a young team with lots of hard-working girls and we are finally putting everything together and playing together as a team.” “It’s their ‘buy in’ to the process,” added Fiesler “They’ve been sponges during practices and game prep days Understanding that each opponent will show us something different the outcome is progress and they’ve been showing great progress and reaping the rewards of that belief.” they’ve jumped out of the gate on fire sweeping league opponents Rittman the Bobcat’s have outscored opponents 130-25 “Starting 10-0 is always a great start,” said Norwayne coach Bree Gill Hitting has been essential for the ‘Cats from the opening pitch of the season where they swept a doubleheader from Black River by a combined 28-7 count Four Norwayne hitters already have 20-plus RBIs and six players have already scored 20-plus runs MaKenna Heyden is one those leaders with 41 runs scored 25 RBIs and scorching the softball at a .610 clip drove in 27 and scored 29 times as she and Heyden both have five round trippers Abby Workman leads the way with seven homers “The key to our success has been in our approach,” said Gill we are swinging with purpose and having a mindset that the next pitch There is no doubt that the encounter between the Bobcats and the Bulldogs will be a must-see for area fans tense moments and some big outs made both in the field and from the circle Former Blount County Schools physical education teacher Joseph Dalton was sentenced to six months of probation after pleading guilty last fall to inappropriately touching multiple elementary school students worked at several elementary schools in Blount County including Eagleton Dalton was a floating PE teacher at Friendsville Dalton was suspended without pay shortly after a

schools Knox News previously reported how complaints about Dalton began as early as 2005 Police reports obtained from the Blount County Sheriff’s Office describe how Dalton would consistently get close to students tickle them under the arm and on the stomach and hug them – often from behind and sometimes for a lengthy period of time There are a handful of documented instances Dalton was named

Betting and gambling content is intended for individuals 21+ and is based on individual commentators' opinions and not that of Sports Illustrated or its affiliates helping them share their stories and the personal connections they have to their films As an awards specialist at Netflix for the past seven years she’s worked on more than two dozen high-profile movies with plans to tell her own story for the first time Dalton is exiting the streamer this week to start her own production company She’s also writing a script based on the journey she undertook after being raped in college and spending more than a decade battling the resulting trauma she had only told close friends and family about that harrowing 2010 experience But now she’s decided she’s ready to share her story in a film mostly so she can explain the healing experience of a little-known process called restorative justice “There’s a significance to this moment for me,” she tells Vanity Fair it’s like there’s chains of shame around my feet and around my wrists and every step I take in trying to work through it has been met with so much resistance Sharing my story in this way is cutting those chains and releasing me of that allows a victim to meet with their offender to express the real impact of the crime they endured in which the victim is able to speak about their experience and hopefully find some closure Dalton had never heard of the idea until a lawyer suggested it to her more than a decade after her assault “I don’t think I would’ve gotten that closure and that acknowledgment and accountability of his actions if I had chosen a different path,” she says “But this is not me trying to convince people that restorative justice is the best option for them Everyone deserves to choose how they want to heal through a trauma like this and to choose when they decide to heal through it.” Dalton was assaulted by someone she knew well and considered a friend of her family After she told her parents what had happened she met with a legal team to explore what could be done or you can choose to do nothing,” she says who grew up in Canada and still lived there at the time was told that the legal process could take 18 to 24 months She had recently been diagnosed with Lyme disease which was causing her challenging health issues and she was concerned that she wouldn’t have the physical or emotional stamina for a drawn-out criminal court experience She instead turned her attention to her health problems she started building up her career—eventually joining the independent awards-consulting firm LTLA Communications in Los Angeles She worked on films such as Spotlight and La La Land then moved over to Netflix with the LTLA crew in 2018 she’d reach back out to her legal team to see if there was any other way to move forward with a case against her assailant because I’m suffocating in silence and I’m numbing myself emotionally,’” she says “I was very disconnected and not living or feeling.” When a lawyer first suggested restorative justice coming to believe it might provide her with the healing she needed—even if there would be no legal ramifications for her assailant “I was really committed to finding a way to hold him accountable and to share my voice and to try to take my power back without retraumatizing myself,” she says She had her legal team send a letter over to her assailant which requested his attendance at a restorative justice meeting and stated that Dalton might have to think seriously about filing criminal charges if he declined and Dalton finally saw her assailant face-to-face for the first time in 12 years Dalton came into the meeting with her legal team and a prepared statement she asked her legal team to leave so that she could speak to him with just the mediator present Their eight-hour conversation was off the record but Dalton left with the closure she needed after the assailant took accountability for his actions “It had such an impact on my life and changed my life and gave me my power back and gave me my voice back in a way that I am so grateful for,” she says she got together with her family and close friends for a small dinner celebration in honor of the progress she’d made toward healing Dalton gradually began sharing her experience with more people in her life She soon realized that many survivors had never heard of the process of restorative justice With so few survivors successfully getting a conviction—according to RAINN 975 predators will walk free—Dalton wanted more people to know there was another path to closure It may have taken her 15 years to find a level of peace that allows her to tell her story publicly to a larger audience but now a door has opened for her to share it both in this article and in the script she’s currently writing “There’s so much beauty in the experience that I’ve had but it’s taken me a lot of time and a lot of tears and a lot of confusion and a lot of uncertainty,” she

Schools gym teacher pleads guilty to touching students, DA’s office says clarified some aspects of the state’s review process Mollenhour said the board of education’s review procedure for Dalton will start at the end of legal proceedings when board staff requests court documentation and report what they find to another body: the case review committee That committee meets at the end of each month where it decides whether or not to recommend disciplinary action for each case If the committee decides Dalton’s license should be suspended or revoked the decision will head straight to the board of education for approval The state board of education only meets four times a year The board will next meet at the end of May this individual is not in a classroom and depending on what facts are revealed We will know this once the SBE’s process concludes,” Mollenhour said “As a Board member, the final actions will come before us for a vote and I look forward to having the opportunity to act at that time.” The final decision will only come from the board. The only preemptive action the board can take is by acting on a rule that allows for Dalton’s license to be revoked automatically only applies to crimes like sexual assault Mollenhour told WVLT News that more information would be available next month at the earliest 05012025 - Joseph Dalton (000240625) - License Report by WVLT News on Scribd After closing out the 2024 campaign with Triple-A Oklahoma City, top catching prospect has continued to prove that he can hit at the highest level of the Minors But the Dodgers are facing a familiar puzzle when it comes to his eventual ascension to the Majors the question remains: Where would he play on a big league roster where he's blocked at his natural position by Will Smith It's been a grind," Rushing said during Spring Training there might be two or three guys who really know the odds of what position I'll play when that time comes I think the biggest thing is make sure the bat's ready and I'm prepared Many in the Dodgers' organization believe that Rushing's bat is Major League-ready The 24-year-old is hitting .316 with a .932 OPS through his first 22 games with the Comets There's no easy answer as to where Rushing would play in the field in the next couple of years First baseman Freddie Freeman is signed through 2027 And no team wants its top position player prospect to get the bulk of his starts at designated hitter because the Dodgers pencil in a guy named Shohei Ohtani at DH every day the Dodgers experimented with playing Rushing in left field He made 31 appearances there and impressed with his athleticism but the organization doesn't want him to focus on learning a new position The aim is for him to hone in on his development as a catcher with starts at first base mixed in to get him more at-bats we've had our catchers [at the Major League level] for a long time and been very successful There's a lot of positives with our group here," general manager Brandon Gomes said recently "So Dalton and [Hunter Feduccia] need to keep playing well and developing as things play out like they normally do You don't know how it's going to go but those opportunities arise in different ways." Gomes acknowledged that the organization has to get the timeline right It's important for Rushing to get everyday reps so the Dodgers would ideally not call him up without a plan to get him the playing time he needs in order to continue his growth both at the plate and behind it Rushing should have some runway and a real opportunity to stick with the big league club As for how Rushing has looked behind the plate reliever Evan Phillips spent the first half of April on a rehab assignment with Oklahoma City and came away impressed by the young backstop "The most important thing is that he took some initiative and was curious about what he can do to help me "So having that conversation alone is impressive to see from a young catching prospect that we're going to be relying on at some point here in the next months So watching that combined with the effort behind the plate I think was really important to see as a pitcher Sign up to receive our daily Morning Lineup to stay in the know about the latest trending topics around Major League Baseball It's right in line with what the organization wants to see from him There's still the question of how Rushing will get those opportunities behind the plate at the big league level He would be high on the depth chart in the case of a long-term injury to Smith but that is decidedly not a best-case scenario The Dodgers might just have to get creative to find a way to get Rushing into their lineup once the organization decides he's ready 'Make sure you're pouring into the game calling and receiving part of it and really developing the relationships with the pitchers,'" Gomes said "We're fortunate that both he and Feddy look great down there and adding real value on both sides of the ball." After playing the same five guys for the entire second half and falling short The only player on the bench with any upside is rookie sharpshooter Dalton Knecht While the team needs more size and defense he could provide a spark with his scoring ability More Lakers News:Lakers' Luka Doncic Donates Entire Price to Restore Kobe and Gianna Bryant Mural Before being a part of the voided trade for center Mark Williams from the Charlotte Hornets Knecht looked like a promising first-round pick he has eased out of the rotation as the season has progressed With the team likely making big changes this offseason (like trying to acquire a similar player to Mark Williams at center) playing Knecht has three potential benefits The first benefit is that he actually helps the team and gives them a fighting chance in the game Injecting something new into the rotation seems like a necessary thing for the Lakers at this point so might as well see if that newfound energy and life in the series is Knecht Another benefit is that he could boost his trade value with one or more good games in the series but one great playoff game could easily change that If the Lakers feel like they aren't in good shape to come back in the series anyway might as well see what you have on the roster heading into next season More Lakers News: Lakers Face Near Impossible Odds to Overcome 3-1 Deficit Knecht could play well and become a significant part of the rotation next season A huge part of having guys like LeBron James and Luka Doncic as your star players is the need for shooters around them to give them space to work a shooter like Knecht is important to have whether in the starting lineup or off the bench even if the Lakers don't think Knecht is the answer to coming back in the series there seem to be many reasons to give him the shot he plays well in a loss and becomes a more significant asset heading into the offseason Kobe Bryant and Gianna Mural Vandalized in Shocking Act Former Laker Suggests Major Luka Doncic Team Up That Would Bring Immediate Title 'It's Laughable', NBA Insider Shreds Lakers' Luka Doncic For more news and notes on the Los Angeles Lakers, visit Los Angeles Lakers on SI.

boy who died Tuesday after being hit by a pickup truck in Pleasant Grove Police said Dalton Gibbs was on his way home from school and riding his bike across the intersection of 2600 North and 900 West at 4 p.m but he was later identified and spoke with police but police say he might be charged in the coming days “There is a very real likelihood that this individual will be charged criminally," Capt "but we have to have all the information first.” "Dalton was a light in the lives of everyone who knew him. He was full of laughter, curiosity, and kindness. He brought joy wherever he went and had a heart as big as his smile," said a GoFundMe page that has been created to help his family with funeral expenses Pleasant Grove Police announced that they are looking for the owner of a Tesla that they believe was at the intersection at the time of the accident and may have captured the incident on its cameras They're asking anyone driving a Tesla in the area around 3:50 p.m on Tuesday to call Detective Penrose at 801-922-4532 The Dalton Select Board and Public Safety Facility Advisory Committee discuss the 120 First St site Wednesday night at the Dalton Senior Center The Select Board voted 3-2 against accepting the site in order to wait for more public input The Public Safety Facility Advisory Committee voted in favor of using the 120 First St but the Dalton Select Board voted 3-2 against it so they can seek more public opinion. “[I’m] still very frustrated by the process,” one resident said DALTON — Town resident Jeannie Ingram is tired of the lack of transparency and communication between the town and its residents voiced their frustrations to the Dalton Select Board regarding the possible use of the old Dalton High School site at 120 First St “[I’m] still very frustrated by the process,” said Ingram who lives on Glennon Avenue and is an abutter to the proposed site Although the Public Safety Facility Advisory Committee voted in favor of using the site the Dalton Select Board ultimately voted 3-2 against it so they can seek more public input The decision means the town is tabling the site recommendation from architect Brian Humes until after the Town Meeting on Monday and the town election on May 12 Humes will also have to stop his work with the site for the time being Residents say it is important to wait for Town Meeting results to see how they'll vote on Article 13 of the warrant which asks the town to rescind the vote taken during the 2017 Annual Town Meeting that authorized the demolition of the old Dalton High School and sale of the property for redevelopment for houses in accordance with zoning by-laws A yes vote by residents would allow the town to use the old high school property for any purpose meaning it could then be considered for a municipal facility — like a new police station Ingram pointed out that the committee and Select Board's vote taking place before town meeting didn't make sense.  “It was already voted on what that property was designated for so I was frustrated as to why they were having this meeting tonight to vote on a property that isn’t even feasible for what they’re talking about,” Ingram said Numerous residents voiced their frustrations with the site highlighting its potential impact on the neighborhood safety concerns for children and how tariffs could affect the construction The night started with frustration from residents who were concerned to see a vote for the final site was placed on the meeting agenda Public Safety Facility Advisory Committee co-chair Craig Wilbur apologized for causing public concern with the wording and for not explaining that it was not going to be a final vote Ingram said she was at the Select Board meeting on Monday night and that they never mentioned they were meeting with the Public Safety Facility Advisory Committee on Wednesday “That’s what I keep hearing is a pattern of a lack of transparency.” Wilbur noted the vote was to use the site at 120 First St as a “sample test fit size," but not as a final decision to move forward with the site.  Select Board member Robert Collins said that he received about 15 to 20 phone calls on Wednesday from concerned residents and that he did not want to vote on a site without public input “The wishes of the people of Dalton are not yet known," Collins said Robert Bishop and Marc Strout voted against approving the site On April 9, Humes, architect for Jacunski Humes Architects LLC. presented his site assessments for a new police station discussing four sites with the final recommendation to build at the old Dalton High School site Putting the police facility on the same parcel as the senior center “could be in the best interest of the town of Dalton,” Humes said at the time Humes originally did not reveal the other three locations instead blocking them out with a black box during the presentation Humes said he did not want to reveal the other locations because it might influence the town’s decisions for the other sites Town Manager Tom Hutcheson announced during a Select Board meeting that he had reached an agreement to begin the feasibility study with Humes The decision was due to the ongoing issues in the current police station The feasibility study is a crucial step in moving the police force out of its current home in the basement of Dalton Town Hall The Select Board previously approved $65,000 of America Rescue Plan Act funding for the feasibility study The Public Safety Facility Advisory Committee said its next steps are working to get community input planning workshops and hosting information sessions They will also be making a survey to send to all residents Dylan Thompson can be reached at
